July 29, 2016

Day before Capstone 2 module workshop.

Spent 20 minutes retrieving sticky tack from shoppers drug mart. It'll be useful for when I'm in the bathroom. I'm going to use it to surround myself with cue cards while I do my "duties" lol.

It's already quite late in the day. I woke up rather late: 10:35. I'm going to try and use my blender Ithink... The time is now 12:49 PM... I'm still kinda tired too!

Wasted some time surfing the internet = 30 minutes. Now I'm going to go eat and start the day. LOL I start the day late because I CAN! I suppose I'm missing that sense of urgency which is bad. I'll need to watch some motivating video while I eat I guess to instill urgency and motivation.

The following is a minor problem specific to my own productivity and my own body. So if you're thinking... OMG... what is this guy writing!? I'm just writing up a solution according to my own bodily problems. Everyone's different! So feel free to find your own minor problems and solve them with your problem solving skills!

If you understand biology, you'd know that when you poop, you're also releasing energy. Which is why things like this can happen. Same thing for all animals, including humans. I tend to get tired, I sometimes run to my bed to bring myself back to a relatively sleepy energetic status.

However, I'm thinking of a new approach. I should eat immediately after doing a number 2. I would be eating because humans gain energy that way. What are some foods that help me feel energized?

  • Almonds, and other nuts
  • probiotics (I wanted to avoid yogurt, but apparently the sugar in it is easily absorbable)
  • Apples! <-- why didn't I think of this sooner!
  • Mushrooms <-- iron helps transport oxygen
  • Water
  • Sunflower seeds 
  • Spinach
  • Sweet potatoes
  • in-season produce
  • eggs 
  • spicy food (I prefer cayenne pepper for spice
  • pop corn (I should order some organic popcorn!)
So if you're anything like me, you have a limited amount of food at home to help energize you. That being said, out of this list: I will probably just grab: a small handful of almonds + cayenne pepper grounded up, add it to water in a water bottle. I'm gonna try to do this every morning, and keep it around the exit of my bathroom. Unless I buy apples in which case I'll just keep those around the exit of my bathroom. I'll remember to eat up afterwards and BAM!!! problem solved :) w00h000!

I think it worked! :) I feel energized. Ready to study. Going to go at it. Ttyl in 75 minutes hopefully I'll have a complete response for a mini case I'm doing.

BTW, I have replaced the time limit + fav. TV show with CPA videos on the CPA Way, and I just eat and stop whenever I feel like! I might use both in the future, but for now, Yeah, WHENEVER I EAT, I just turn on my x-box which I have modified (so that it has XBMC which stores all my favorite video files). I simply transferred the CPA Way videos that were given to me by CPA, and then I watch whenever I eat ^^ totally sweet!

It's 4:56 PM, and I have to do 3 more tasks before I can prepare an outline for the case I just read... Then I also have to write a response... That being said I'd like to get my tasks, outline, and response done so I can meet the deadline.

I'm not in the mood to work, that being said I have some motivation issues... Also I keep thinking of my ex! I really want to be with her in the future! I think I should give her a call. I don't want her to think that I don't care... But if she's dating someone else, then I'll 1000% call it quits and give up.

So I called her! And she said she missed me and she loved me!? WOOOHOOO! :) I was happy. I couldn't help but act calm and cool. But I felt like: Aren't I supposed to be saying I miss you and love you? I told her I did miss her! I didn't tell her I love her, although I definitely do! She told me after she said goodbye so I was sort of taken by shock that she said that. I miss her so much :( If you've been reading my blog, you'd know that I miss her a lot! And that although I tried to remove her from my life because I thought she was a distraction, I suppose I learned the hard way: it's even more of a distraction if you try to remove someone you love a lot. She was kind of mean to me, before we parted ways. At least I thought so. But I think I over exaggerated her meanness. I'm going to see her tonight after I finish writing my case. I would like to go for a walk with her. I still don't know if she is seeing anyone else. If she is, then I should be wasting my money to go travel to see her. She's about 20 to 30 minutes away. And capstone 2 is tomorrow morning!!! So I really have to keep my interaction with her short :(

ANYWAYS, back to the accounting world. I just read some CPA documents. CPA gave us a case to do before the workshop. I read it and I mean some stuff came to mind, but I was more overwhelmed than anything. I was thinking: how am I supposed to write a response for this!? I felt like my technical skills had withered a bit. Too much to write an effective response. Alas, they're not expecting perfection! Yay! So I came across a similar solution to the case I was gonna write and I thought "YES! A solution! I will read this before I write the case and BAM! All the right thinking patterns will come to me!" Then, I read the CPA guide to writing cases as well as the guide to debriefing cases. So apparently, you gotta attempt a case on your own before you actually see the response lol. I suppose that's expected. Conclusion: I'm going to attempt a response the way they've told me to do it in their how to write a case response guide and THEN I'll look at a solution I found that might tell me where I went wrong and how to correct my response into an answer that would reach competency.

So I'll need 75 minutes of free time. the time is now 8:30 ... If I start in 10 minutes 8:40 I'll be done by 9:55 PM :) that's great! And then I can debrief with their solution. And then I can hand in an awesome response by 12 PM I'll try to leave for her place before 12.

I might trim my hair, wash my face, take a shower, wear nice clothes, lift some weights, and eat some healthy food before I leave to her place. :) I'm so happy she doesn't hate me or hasn't forgotten about me. Life is great. <-- Just because a girl is happy to see you or misses you, doesn't mean she wants to date a loser. That being said, I'm about to say something incredibly wise (that I didn't come up with myself), IF THERE IS SOMETHING YOU WANT IN LIFE, WIN! Before I called her, I know that if I were to fail the CFE, then she would be unhappy with her choice of men. But if I passed, she'd be like oh yeah, I got a good one. Do you know what I mean? I want her. I miss her. That's all good and dandy. But what's not good is if I fail the CFE. And since they'll give us plenty of opportunities to reach their MPIs (minimum point indicators?) then that means there are plenty of opportunities to fail us. So I'm still putting the majority of my emotions and focus into passing the CFE. I'm just giving some time to where my instinctual drive wants to be, i.e. with her <3 But yeah. I want her, so I'LL WIN! And if I don't win then I'll try and try again!
